Add configuration to serve public routes from a different base url path

README.md

@@ -196,6 +196,11 @@ The following environment variables can be used to configure Livebook on boot:
   * `LIVEBOOK_BASE_URL_PATH` - sets the base url path the web application is
     served on. Useful when deploying behind a reverse proxy.
 
+  * `LIVEBOOK_PUBLIC_BASE_URL_PATH` - sets the base url path the `/public/*` routes
+    are served on. Note that this takes precedence over `LIVEBOOK_BASE_URL_PATH`,
+    if both are set. Setting this may be useful to create exceptions when deploying
+    behind a reverse proxy that requires au1thentication.
+
   * `LIVEBOOK_CACERTFILE` - path to a local file containing CA certificates.
     Those certificates are used during for server authentication when Livebook
     accesses files from external sources.
